Media Puzzle Puzzles Media

Flemington yesterday saw the annual racing of the thoroughbreds for what is known as the Melbourne Cup. The winning jockey was a half-man many refer to as Damian Oliver. Brother to this wee folksman is Jason Oliver, also a man known for whipping the horses with leather. In a poignant move the horse, Media Puzzle, snuck in over the line in three lengths to win the cup.

One week prior to the finish, Jason was killed in a training run around a track. Today the funeral of dead jockey is being held. Damian was seen yesterday prior to the race walking the run checking the track with an umbrella.

Having tasted the win of a Melbourne Cup once previously it isn't far-fetched to believe that the tragic flattening of the oompa loompa sibling was an elaborate plan for the second.

Killed his brother, took the glory. Deflection came in the way of a salute to his dead sibling at the acceptance.

There will not be any formal inquiries into this 'special' win.

Paraffin: There has been an inquiry to this very suspicious equine fall.

Where in Kentucky - Mammoth Cave National Park: Monstrously, and seemingly neverending, sitting under the home ground of Colonel Sanders, the world's largest cave system. Yucatan comes nowhere close. Not even Cocklebiddy poses a threat. No comparison. Small holes looking up at a big fat long one. Sadly, with possible age and lack of food, no minotaurs to be found within the lime walls.
Homebrew Diary - Wheatbeer of misery: If what can turn a foul mood around becomes the harbinger of the foul mood, what happens next? Turn it into a learning experience. And when that learning curve makes a late break over the plate, you'd better start to swing away.
Homebrew Diary - Blackrock IPA + Hops: It doesn't take a big man to admit that he drinks. It takes a big man to get wasted and perform impromptu sermons naked from a balcony; raving upon the ravages of the insanity of stata bylaws and noisy offspring in adjoining arpartments...
